Made by Mammas: The Podcast

This week we’re joined by the hosts of the Daddies Overnight podcast, Matthew and Ryan, to talk about their journey to becoming dads through adoption. They share the harsh reality of the adoption process, from assessments and waiting to the moment they were finally matched with their son, and open up about the highs, the challenges and everything in between. We also chat about life as same-sex parents, the importance of representation, and raising their little boy with love, honesty and pride. It’s a warm, honest and uplifting conversation about modern families and the many different paths to parenthood.

Welcome to our first ever "No Filter Friday" episode. Strap in! This week, the gloves are off and the honesty is turned all the way up. We’re diving into your questions, the ones that you might feel a bit of shame around feeling, let alone talking about in your day-to-day life with other people! But here there is no judgment or sugar-coating. From admitting that parenting can actually be really boring, to the very real question of quitting breastfeeding because of…Botox. Yep, we go there. Nothing is off limits, nothing is polished, and nothing is filtered. Just real parents, real confessions, and the kind of conversations you usually only have saved in your drafts after a few glasses! If you’ve ever thought “Is it just me?”...this episode is for you. Find a new episode every Tuesday & Friday and in the meantime check out Made By Mammas on Instagram: @madebymammas.

Today's episode is quite possibly our absolute favourite conversation we've ever had! We are joined by Elliott Rae to talk about something that’s been quietly worrying so many parents: how we’re raising boys in today’s world. From the lack of positive role models to the pressure on boys to “man up” before they even understand their own feelings, Elliott shares why so many young boys are struggling and what we can actually do differently. Together, they explore how to raise emotionally healthy boys, how mums and dads can encourage openness and vulnerability, and why changing the way we talk to our sons now can shape the men they become later. This is an honest, thoughtful and empowering conversation for anyone raising a boy and for anyone who wants the next generation to grow up kinder, more emotionally aware, and truly confident in who they are.
